[ Upstream commit 9e25826ffc942e985b8595b2f1cf2065d3880514 ]

Switchdev notifications for addition of SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_PORT_VLAN are
distributed not only on clean addition, but also when flags on an
existing VLAN are changed. mlxsw_sp_bridge_port_vlan_add() calls
mlxsw_sp_port_vlan_get() to get at the port_vlan in question, which
implicitly references the object. This then leads to discrepancies in
reference counting when the VLAN is removed. spectrum.c warns about the
problem when the module is removed:

Fix by putting the port_vlan when mlxsw_sp_port_vlan_bridge_join()
determines it's a flag-only change.
